To some, marriage is something you can walk into and walk out of when you deem fit; but is it? I doubt it.
People rush into marriage these days and they also tend to rush out of it just the same way they came in to it. Marriage shouldn’t be seen as an escape route or a mere relationship; it’s definitely more than that and should be treated thus.
Before getting married you should be sure of these ten things.
1. You love your partner and your partner loves you too.
2. You aren’t getting married for superficial reasons.
3. You both feel right about it and have this conviction that you are towing the right path.
4. You accept each other’s flaws.
5. You are ready to make the marriage work.
6. You are prepared for marriage. Every other thing written in this article would be a waste of time if you aren’t prepared for the union called marriage.
7. You complement each other and see each other’s happiness as important.
8. You make each other better.
9. You support each other.
10. You trust each other. When trust is lacking, the foundation of that marriage would definitely be shaky.
No thanks to Hollywood’s romantic scenes, marriage to many is seen as a bed of roses where happiness is the order of the day. It’s what you do and how you treat your marriage that would make it a happy one.
Welcome to reality!
